Nail Pops

I tried to take pictures of the nail pops, but with the walls being white it was really hard to get a decent shot.  For those of you who wanted to know what it looks like, I got this image online:


Ours aren't quite that bad yet.  The drywall hasn't cracked at all.  It just looks like a little raised circle.  If we weren't looking for them, I dont' know how many we'd actually see.  We're still on the fence about when to paint.  I really want to do it now, but part of me thinks we should wait.  We'll see.

It SNOWED in Pittsburgh today.  Crazy!  I'm feeling like I'll NEVER get a real driveway - it's never warm enough for them to put it in!

  4. We've been painting and I already see nail pops on the walls we painted. I kind of wish we would have waited, but I also don't think I could have lived with white walls everywhere. I figure we'll just have to do some touch up after our ten-month visit.

  5. Thanks for the picture. We are also planning to paint. Our PM said it would be better if we could hold upto the 10 month inspection as things need to settle down and we have to repaint after repairs. But we cant wait to decorate home until then :-( What should we do?

  6. It's a hard decision. Rigt now we're leaning towards waiting. That way we can focus on getting all the furniture we need first. I think I can live with the white walls for a while, but who knows if I'll feel that way in a couple of months.

  7. Thanks so much for posting this!!! A co-worker of mine who recently guilt new (she built with Richmond Homes)recommended getting furniture first. That way it helps you focus on something else whil waiting for the house to settle. How do the fix the nail pops and when will they fix them?
